Annie Lennox - Dark Road lyrics

It's a dark road

And a dark way that leads to my house

And the word says

That you're never gonna find me there, oh no

I've got an open door

It didn't get there by itself

It didn't get there by itself...

There's a feelin'

But you're not feelin' it at all

There's a meaning

But you're not listening any more

I look at that open road

I'm gonna walk there by myself...

And if you catch me I might try to run away

You know I can't be there too long

And if you let me I might try to make you stay

Seems you never realise a good thing till it's gone...

Maybe I'm still searchin' but I don't know what it means

All the fires of destruction are still burnin' in my dreams

There's no water that can wash away this longin' to come clean...

Hey yea yea...

I can't find the joy within in my soul

It's just sadness takin' hold

I wanna come in from the cold

And make myself renewed again

It takes strength to live this way

The same old madness everyday

I wanna kick these blues away

I wanna learn to live again

Hey hey hey

It's a dark road

And a dark way that leads to my house

And the word says

That you're never gonna find me there oh no

I've got an open door

It didn't get there by itself... ooh

It didn't get there by itself
